When The New York Times published its list of top platforms for digital mental health care, it wasn’t just the companies that made headlines.
Amwell, a leading telehealth company and URAC-accredited organization, was named among the best for digital mental health services. In its coverage, The Times explicitly cited URAC Telehealth Accreditation as an indicator of higher standards and trustworthy care. That recognition underscores what we at URAC have long known: strong accreditation is a meaningful signal of quality in a fast-growing and evolving industry.
As telehealth continues to expand, especially in mental health treatment, patients, providers and policymakers need clear ways to identify organizations that are delivering care that is safe, effective and equitable. URAC’s Telehealth Accreditation does exactly that.
“URAC accreditation isn’t just a seal, it’s a standard,” said URAC President and CEO Shawn Griffin, MD. “We’re proud to support leading digital health organizations like Amwell in delivering high-quality, accessible care, and we’re honored to see our standards recognized by The New York Times as a mark of excellence.”
